These describe how the fragrance is generally reported to behave. Skin chemistry, weather and how much you apply all change it, so your own experience may differ.

Modelled profile

Maple-like immortelle over vanilla and amber, warmed by spice into something syrupy and sun-baked. It projects strongly and smells of curry-leaf sweetness and dried herbs. A distinctive, honeyed amber that leans gourmand.

Always works, always easy.

The one to reach for in a hurry. It fits the moment because it always does. Don't think, just go for it.

How Sables smells, measured

On Zenyra's five taste axes, Sables carries across a room and announces itself, and feels thick in the air, saturated and physically there.

Modelled profile. This profile is derived from the evidence currently available and may be refined over time.

Warmthtemperate0.56

Sables sits temperate, built on woods and soft musk rather than amber. That is 66th percentile for warmth across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Projectionroom-filling0.74

Sables carries across a room and announces itself. That is 93rd percentile for projection across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Riskmid-range0.37

Sables sits mid-range on risk, neither a clear crowd-pleaser nor clearly divisive on the evidence available.

Texturedense0.72

Sables feels thick in the air, saturated and physically there. That is 80th percentile for texture across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Sweetnessdry0.28

Sables keeps the sweetness pared back, dry and austere. That is 30th percentile for sweetness across 5,283 scored fragrances.

Projection, risk and texture describe how a fragrance behaves in a room and on skin. Where wear reports are thin, those scores rest near the middle by design, so a mid-range reading here is a statement about the evidence as much as about the scent. Warmth and sweetness are derived from composition and do not carry that caveat.
